I saw it. It was pretty amazing and I think I definitely need to see it again (or a few times) just to maybe get answers to some questions I had after watching it. I might just wait for DVD to re-watch it.The guy that plays Arthur in this movie was great, he's not the lead but just his persona made him really stand out.

dude, he's the man!! i've liked him ever since "3rd rock from the sun"... i haven't seen this yet and chances are i won't see this until it comes out on DVD... i am just not into going to the theaters right now... i guess if i had a girlfriend, i would of seen this already...

Oh, good one. The "you're on the internet so you must have no life" insult isn't moronic or unoriginal at all. You must, without a doubt, be a very important member of society, not at all a waste of the already barely valuable gift of life.

As is the case for everyone who takes issue with people who make them sad on the internet, you are one of two kinds of people:

You are exactly what you claim I am, and that is a lonely, pathetic basement dweller. You life is spent eating eight pounds of junk food per day, masturbating to anything you find online that's even remotely feminine, and wishing you had good looks and social skills. You continue to live with your mother until she dies of a combination of lung cancer and liver failure brought on by the chain-smoking and heavy drinking she used to cope with what a failure you are. Your mother mercifully dead and free of the living embodiment of failure she regretfully thrust from her loins, the bills start to pile up and you, unemployed and unable to pay these bills (of course), lose the house and everything in it. Somehow even more of a failure than you already were, you wander from place to place eating out of dumpsters and sleeping in your own filth until you finally die of AIDS, which you contracted from a diseased whore you scrounged up enough money to pay for, so you could finally lose your virginity while at the same time pretending that your mother was back in your life.

Or:

You are the type who was an athlete in high school, who was genetically doomed to be an idiot but managed to finish school and even get a college scholarship because you were so good at a worthless children's game. You went off to college with a suitcase full of polo shirts and condoms, the polo shirts, because you're a douche, and the condoms to prevent you from impregnating the dim-witted young college girls whom you could never touch without the aid of Rohypnol, a drug you refer to as "roofies" because you can neither spell or pronounce Rohypnol. You scrape by with borderline D's for the next four years, and leave the campus to go out into the real world where your realize you're not intelligent or talented enough to do anything of value with your life. Misery and minimum wage ensues for thirty years, then you blow your brains out, and your corpse, alone and forgotten, is not discovered until the smell of rotting flesh seeps under your door and your bodily fluids finally soak through the floor of your studio apartment and into the room below you. Your body is cremated, the ashes scraped into a garbage bin because there was no one in your life who valued you enough to pay for a casket, funeral, or burial plot.

You're undoubtedly one of the two, otherwise you would have better things to do than complain about the theme of a forum that doesn't care about anything you have to say.

i was only making a simple basic post about it, was going to dive into details considering i posted it the day after release, a lot of people might have seen it, didnt want to give anything away. the only thing you said stoic was that youd seen it twice, and couldnt sleep after it lol haha

I'm just kidding. I'll start with the spoilers. Be sure to use a spoiler box.

At the end of the movie, do you think he was still in limbo or was the top about to fall?

The "wedding band theory" states that DiCaprio's character only wears his wedding band (on his left hand) in dream-states and not in reality-states of the movie. I went back to verify this, and it's right. Every scene where they go into a dream, he's wearing it. Every time he comes back out, he's not. In the ending, DiCaprio spins the top and walks to his children, but he's not wearing the ring... indicating that he's in reality and that he is really with his children and not stuck in limbo or another dream.

That's stupid. The children were wearing the same clothes and hadn't aged a day. They were even in the same recycled footage reel. People are just feeding into this movie as much as they are because they haven't even had a mediocre film in years. What do you have here that isn't the Cell? The Matrix? Dark City? Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? This movie gave us nothing new.

The reason is that when heartless says something stupid, he really means it and believes it.

“They refer to me as an uneducated barbarian. Yes, we are barbarians. We want to be barbarians, it is an honored title to us. We shall rejuvenate the world. This world is near its end.”

I saw the film couple of days ago and I think it's even better than The Matrix though it's only my opinnion. The film had great depth in it, great cast and the subject of dreams was interesting and it was portrayed in a very fascinating way. Not to mention the perfect score this movie has. Hans Zimmer rules.

Read anything by jean baudrillard if you want something really deep about reality.

Thread has been killed.

If you enjoy this movie, you're an idiot. How dare you enjoy one of the best movies this year?

Fucking cynics. Shove a book by jean baudrillard up your ass.

The characters made the movie. There was nothing EARTH SHATTERING about the movie, but IT'S A FUCKING MOVIE.
